And how big does the "big picture" need to be? For example, if I applied in an area that is 90% white, do the demographics of the province apply even if different demographics exist in that commutershed? Should equal opportunity not be taken down to the community level to make it really fair?

edit: I see that question was answered...
I *think* it is the city or 3 KM around the area. So if the company 3 operations in 3 different cities, each plant would be measured according to the demographics that the operation is based in.

Not 100% sure on this though, my company does not have to comply with these regulations, so we use our own measure (3KM around a facility) to measure the diversity for that facility.
